Cautions
All Genesis baskets, organizational accessories, and single use accessories supplied by CareFusion, V.Mueller Products and Services covered by these instructions for use are listed in the appendix. These instructions for use do not provide a complete guide for sterilization and cleaning of the Genesis reusable rigid container system. See the Genesis Sterilization Container Operators Manual for additional detail.
If there are any variations between these instructions and either your facility’s policies and/or your cleaning/sterilizing equipment manufacturer’s instructions those variations should be brought to the attention of the appropriate responsible hospital personnel for resolution before proceeding with cleaning and sterilizing these accessories. Prior to use, all accessories should be inspected to ensure proper function and condition. Do not use accessories if they do not satisfactorily perform their intended function or have physical damage.
Intended Use The Genesis reusable rigid container system is a device intended to be used to enclose another medical device that is to be sterilized by a healthcare provider. It allows sterilization of the enclosed medical device and maintains sterility of the enclosed device until used.
Only one DST-series filter sheet, or thickness, should be used underneath each retention plate per process. Using more than one thickness or sheet of the filter has not been validated for efficacy.
Baskets and organizational accessories are intended to organize and secure medical devices during sterilization, transport, and storage of the container. Single use accessories, including the DST-series filter sheets, tamper-evident arrows, and data cards are intended to be used with the Genesis reusable rigid container systems and aid in sterilization processing and storage. Refer to the Genesis Sterilization Container Operators Manual for complete details on assembly, use and processing.
Sterilizers vary in design and performance characteristics. It is strongly recommended that the user verify the cycle parameters for the specific sterilizer prior to use. Adjusted cycle times may be required to properly sterilize desired loads. The accessories listed in the appendix have only been validated for use with Genesis reusable rigid container systems using the parameters defined in the Genesis Sterilization Container Operators Manual. If Instruction for Use are needed, contact your local V. Mueller representative or distributor or call the customer service center at 800.227.3220.
How Supplied Baskets, organizational accessories, and single use accessories are packaged as non-sterile. Baskets and organizational accessories must undergo cleaning prior to use.
Pre-processing Instructions Refer to the Genesis Sterilization Container Operators Manual for complete pre-processing and assembly instructions.
Limitations on Reprocessing Repeated processing has minimal effect on the baskets and organizational accessories. End of life is normally determined by wear and damage due to use. Single use accessories must be discarded after each process.
Select appropriate size filter according to the retention plate size. Each sterilant access (perforated) area requires one filter. The sterilant access area(s) is located in the container lids and in the bottoms of select container devices. Prior to insertion, inspect each filter to ensure it is free of any holes, tears or punctures which could adversely affect its performance.
Warnings Baskets, organizational accessories, and single use accessories shall be used in accordance with these instructions and the Genesis Sterilization Container Operators Manual. Read all sections of this insert prior to use. Improper use of these accessories may result in a non-sterile set after processing. In addition, improper care and maintenance of these accessories may render the accessories non-sterile prior to patient use and may cause serious injury to patient or healthcare provider.
Select appropriate tamper-evident arrow according to intended sterilization modality. White tamper-evident arrows are intended for steam modalities, yellow for Ethylene Oxide, and pink (fuchsia) for STERRAD 50 and 100S.
Manual and Automatic Cleaning Refer to the Genesis Sterilization Container Operators Manual for complete cleaning instructions and parameters compatible with the baskets and organizational accessories.
Do not use filter materials in the presence of flammable anesthesia. A safety hazard may be created. Filter materials other than the Genesis DST-series filters have not been validated for use with the Genesis reusable rigid containers. Follow the Modality Specific Recommendations for Accessories and Containers found in the Genesis Sterilization Container Operators Manual for determining proper container system setup and validated processing methods and parameters.

Inspection/Maintenance
Warranty
The Genesis accessories should be routinely inspected for damage which could result in the product not functioning as intended. Baskets and organizational accessories should be inspected for dents, sharp edges/corners, and proper function to ensure they are in good working order prior to use. Filters should be inspected for tears, punctures, and creases/folds which could adversely affect performance. Tamper-evident arrows should be inspected to ensure the chemical indicator dot has not undergone a premature color change.
Genesis baskets and organizational accessories are warranted for their lifetime to be free of functional defects in both materials and workmanship when used normally for their intended purpose of securing and organizing surgical instruments in the Genesis reusable rigid container systems. Any Genesis accessory proving to be so defective will be repaired or replaced at no charge.
